The Making of the Giant
A Giant in the Making
When we first encountered Mocoa, we recognized something special. Here was a deposit that had been explored but never fully understood—a sleeping giant waiting to be awakened.
The Mocoa porphyry system exhibits all the characteristics of the world's great copper deposits: immense scale, consistent grades, and potential for significant expansion. What makes Mocoa truly exceptional is the combination of size, grade, and infrastructure in a mining-friendly jurisdiction.
Our experienced team has developed and operated some of the world's largest copper mines. We know what a giant deposit looks like—and Mocoa has giant written all over it.

Project Overview
The Mocoa copper-molybdenum porphyry project is located in the Putumayo Department of southern Colombia. The project is 100% owned by Copper Giant Resources Corp.
Mocoa hosts one of the largest undeveloped copper-molybdenum deposits in the Americas, with significant exploration upside. The deposit remains open in multiple directions and recent drilling has identified new high-grade zones.
The project benefits from excellent infrastructure including road access, nearby communities, and proximity to power lines. Colombia is a mining-friendly jurisdiction with a well-established regulatory framework.

Mineral Resource Notes
1. The MRE was completed by Kevin Hon, B.Sc., P.Geo., Senior Resource Geologist, and Warren Black, M.Sc., P.Geo., Senior Consultant: Mineral Resources and Geostatistics, both of APEX Geoscience Ltd. Mr. Hon and Mr. Black are independent Qualified Persons, as defined by NI 43-101, and are responsible for the completion of the Mineral Resource Estimate, with an effective date of November 18, 2025. Michael Dufresne, M.Sc., P.Geo., President & CEO of APEX, completed a peer review of the estimate.
2. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
3. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
4. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could potentially be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
5. The Mineral Resources were estimated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions (2014) and Best Practices Guidelines (2019) prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council.
6. Economic assumptions used include US$4.00/lb Cu, US$20.00/lb Mo, process recoveries of 90% for Cu and 95% for Mo, a US$10/t processing cost, G&A costs of US$1.00/t, and a 3% NSR royalty.
7. CuEq* values are calculated using a Cu-to-Mo value ratio of 1:5.278, incorporating both metal prices and metallurgical recoveries.
8. The constraining pit optimization parameters include a US$2.5/t mining cost for both mineralized and waste material and 45° pit slopes. Pit-constrained Mineral Resources are reported at a cutoff of 0.25% CuEq*.

Significant Growth Potential
The Mocoa deposit remains open in all directions, with recent drilling continuing to expand the mineralized footprint. Three distinct high-grade zones have been identified within the broader porphyry system.
District-scale exploration potential extends well beyond the current resource area, with multiple untested targets identified through geophysical surveys and surface mapping.
Key Takeaways
- Resource remains open for expansion
- Three high-grade zones identified
- District-scale exploration upside
- Ongoing drilling program
District Exploration
District-Scale Potential
The Mocoa project sits within a larger porphyry copper belt with significant district-scale exploration potential. Our exploration team has identified multiple high-priority targets beyond the main deposit.
Recent results continue to demonstrate that we have only scratched the surface of what this district can deliver. The main deposit remains open in all directions, and new zones of high-grade mineralization continue to be discovered.

Geology: Characteristics of a Giant
A World-Class Porphyry System
The Mocoa deposit is a classic porphyry copper-molybdenum system formed in a continental arc setting. The mineralization is hosted by Jurassic-age intrusive rocks that have intruded older sedimentary and volcanic sequences.
What makes Mocoa exceptional is the remarkable continuity and scale of the mineralization. The deposit extends over 2 kilometers in strike length and remains open in all directions. Drilling has demonstrated mineralization to depths exceeding 1,200 meters.
Three distinct high-grade zones have been identified within the broader mineralized envelope, each representing potential targets for higher-grade starter pit scenarios.
Porphyry System
Classic calc-alkaline porphyry copper-molybdenum system with multiple intrusive phases.
Alteration Zones
Well-developed potassic, phyllic, and propylitic alteration zones typical of large porphyry deposits.
Mineralization Style
Disseminated and stockwork veinlet copper-molybdenum mineralization throughout the deposit.
High-Grade Zones
Multiple high-grade shells identified within the broader mineralized envelope.
